"We are proud and excited to be honored as the best supplier of Flash memory for Lenovo Mobile Communication Technology," said Gary Wang, vice president for Asia-Pacific operations at Spansion. "This validates the popularity and credibility of Spansion™ products with our customers and also demonstrates that Spansion is a leader in the Flash memory industry. Spansion Flash memory, especially our MirrorBit™ technology, provides mobile phone manufacturers with advanced Flash memory products that enable them to produce affordable and feature-rich mobile communications products."

The Flash memory products Spansion provides to Lenovo include devices based on traditional floating-gate technology, with densities ranging from 32Mb to 128Mb, as well as products based on the company's proprietary MirrorBit technology, with densities ranging from 64Mb to 128Mb.
